Comments: I run 20 to 25 mile per week. I ran in these shoes for about 200 miles. All the sudden I started to have foot pain, up until then they were a great shoe but seemed to break down too fast. I changed shoes and foot pain went away.

Comments: 6'2, 225. 10-15 miles a week depending on what I'm training for. Very well cushioned but not sluggish. Plenty of room in the toe box. My only complaint is that the laces are staggered to the side and it seems to put a lot of pressure on the top of my first metatarsal. I've been able to adjust the laces to relieve some of the pressure but for that kind of money, I'll probably buy another shoe.

Comments: I'm 6'1"", 160 lbs, with high arches and use this shoe with orthodics. It's excellent for marathon training. The cushion is wonderful for long runs. The fit is good. It's on the heavy side, but I don't mind so much. I trained for the marathon last year in the Nimbus 10, and I picked up of the new ones and they're even better. Overall, its a very well cushioned and comfortable shoe.

Comments: I am a 190 pound high arch, midfoot striker with a neutral right foot and slight overpronation in the left. I wear mild corrective orthotics. I'm 60 years old and run 25 miles/week for the past 33 years... that's about 25,000 miles. Because of my midfoot strike, I need a lot of support in that area and these shoes are a perfect fit under my arch. I also wear the Saucony Triumph 6, but the Nimbus 11 is a bit more stable. There is a nice snug heel. The toe box has no overlay problems. I will update when I have about 50 miles on them, but right now they are a 5 star shoe. I might add that it's been about 10 years since I've been in any Asics model, so I haven't anything to compare it to for you.

Comments: 49 years old 5'9" 180lbs - run 20 to 30 miles per week. I plan to run my first 1/2 this fall and all goes well a full in the spring. I have run in many different Asics models over the years. The Nimbus 11's are the best shoes yet. Right out of the box the day they arrived I tested them on a 10 mile run. I found them to be comfortable, light weight with excellent cushion in both the heel and forefoot. This is a great shoe.

Comments: 6 feet, about 180 lb (or a few less on a good day) and run 20-30 miles per week, 1 or 2 races per month
and am training for a 1/2 in Oct. I previously ran in (including a 1/2 marathon) two different pair of Nimbus 10 and
thought they were very well cushioned, but too narrow in the forefoot (resulting in a big callus on the outer ball of left
foot). I have only 2 runs of 5 mi each in the Nimbus 11 and my initial impressions are they are lighter, more breathable,
softer and more flexible over the top of the foot and roomier in the forefoot. They are very comfortable to run in, so
much so that you almost don't realize how hard you're running because the impact is not there (compared to a pair of
Nimbus 10 with 200 miles or so on them) and you look down and see your pulse is 160...So far a great shoe, am hoping
they last as well as the 10s (got about 600 mi on my first pair).
